Sarah and Dallan are married! They had a beautiful winter wedding at the Salt Lake Temple and reception at the Garden Place at This is the Place Heritage Park.
Some of my favorite things about their big day:
When Sarah and Dallan came out of the temple, Sarah started jumping up and down in excitement. I love how happy she is pretty much ALL the time. When they came down the stairs, her veil blew off and she grabbed it and threw it into the crowd.
After we did family and friend pictures, we went into the temple to warm up where we mapped out our plan for getting the most pictures around the temple as quickly as possible. After each spot, Sarah would run to the next spot. While she was running, her veil blew off again and I snapped a picture of Dallan grabbing it off the ground and running after her. It was the best. He’s gotta catch up after his runaway bride. Dallan got pretty good putting her veil back in. They’re the best!
They decorated the reception place so pretty. There were so many flowers and greenery and candles. It was gorgeous! My favorite thing was the bread table. It looked like a bakery and smelled like a bakery. They had different breads with choices of jam or honey and artichoke dip and cranberry jalapeno spread. I had some after and it was delicious.
Sarah is a 3rd grade teacher at an elementary school in Murray. It was so fun to see some of her students come to the reception and talk with her. She is so cute with them!
Sarah and Dallan have had the longest receiving line I’ve ever seen! I asked Sarah’s sister if it was mostly their parent’s friends, but she said they were mostly Sarah and Dallan’s friends. They are such a nice, down to earth couple that it didn’t surprise me one bit!
Sarah and Dallan’s first dance was awesome. They are amazing country swing dancers and so they showed off their moves!
For their send off, they gave their guests choices of throwing lavender, blowing bubbles or ringing a bell. They also held Christmas lights. I think most of them threw lavender at them. It was great!
It was a pleasure working with Sarah and Dallan. Congratulations you guys!!
